Wow what a view from the Barn on the Banks of Yellowstone National Park!!❤️


Wow..what a view..love the loft! You may not have been 'Born in a Barn', but here's your chance to stay in one and VACATION 'Till the Cows Come Home'! We invite you to stay in our barn loft and call it your home, while you relax and enjoy our nation's largest and oldest National Park.

Barn on the Banks is located just above the Yellowstone river in a quiet residential area on the outskirts of Gardiner, Montana. We are less than 1 mile to the park's North Gate Entrance, famous for the Teddy Roosevelt Arch, and within walking distance to down town shops, restaurants, a grocery store, post office and excellent trout fishing.

Yellowstone river runs through this small town that is nestled at the foothills of Electric Peak, a majestic mountain that carries snow throughout most of the year. We are located at the end of a lane with no through traffic. Our loft overlooks the confluence of the Gardiner and Yellowstone rivers, and has unobstructed spectacular views of the mountains. We border the river and we are directly across from Yellowstone Park.

A short walk down the bank takes you to the river's edge where you can sit and enjoy nature, including frequent fliers of ducks, geese, bald eagles, and osprey, or possibly see a family of otters playing in the water.

From our deck you can view hummingbirds, mountain songbirds, and wildlife including deer, elk, Big Horn sheep, Pronghorn (antelope), or possibly see a bear, wolf, coyote, or bison.

One summer while sitting on the deck of the barn, my husband witnessed a doe deer giving birth to twin fawns. We frequently saw mama deer and her little ones close to our house and barn throughout the summer. Now we've seen yet another 'Near Barn Birth'! Over Memorial Weekend, we and our guests witnessed an Elk giving birth just a few feet below the deck of the Barn! This is truly an area you'll be able to experience nature.


The barn has never housed animals, the bottom of the barn is used for private storage. The barn loft was renovated in 2008-2009, and features a full kitchen with all new appliances, comfortable seating in the living area, and a large deck that looks into Yellowstone Park. You can sit by the fire on a chilly night, or cool down with air conditioning on a hot summer day.

There are amazing views from all areas of the loft made easy by several large windows.
The master bedroom has a king bed, private bath, air conditioning, a fireplace and your own private balcony to sit, relax and enjoy the sunset.

The cozy 'Queen Room' catches the morning sun, and has the ambiance of a fireplace as well.
The 3rd and "middle bedroom'" has one full sized double bed and one twin bed.
The sofa in the living room converts to a full size bed.

The deck which overlooks Yellowstone Park and the river, features outdoor tables and chairs as well as additional seating and a gas grill under the deck. So come and stay with us, enjoy our 'Barn on the Banks', and make your vacation one you will remember.
**NOTE: There is an additional 3% Gardiner Resort Tax that you will be billed separately for if your stay is June through September.

- Your Hosts, Ken and Linda.

We fell in love with the Barn as soon as we got there. The hosts are so thoughtful and sweet. We absolutely adored seeing elk, pronghorn, squirrels and chipmunks every day from the balcony!

Highlight of our trip
The Barn on the Banks is better then what you see in the pics. Great location with amazing views of the park, elk right at your doorstep, and the Linda and Ken are amazing hosts. Literally 5 minutes to the North Entrance which allowed us to come and go to experience even more of the park. We loved everything about the place and will definitely be back.

Great stay at Barn on the Banks!
My husband, two kids and my parents stayed for 5 nights at the cabin. Check in was communicated through email but Linda also followed up via text to make sure I received which was very appreciated. Cabin was beautifully decorated and had all the accommodations needed including spices for cooking, and griddle for breakfast. They had a propane grill which was so nice, vs most places it’s charcoal and you have to bring your own. Linda and her husband live right next door so if we were outside they checked to make sure we were all set and didn’t need anything and wished us well when we departed. Cabin was easy to get to and close to the town and north Yellowstone entrance. Oh and it has A/C units which most other places do not. Hard to see in the pictures but the walk down to the river is steeper than expected and you can’t see the cabin once down there. Would definitely recommend staying here to anyone looking.

We really enjoyed our stay at the barn! The house was well equipped with everything we wanted or needed for our stay. Comfy beds, very clean, great views, well stocked kitchen for cooking, etc. The hosts were very friendly & checked in with us to make sure we were comfortable. Our family of 5 loved the area & close access to YNP. We would definitely stay here again!

Perfect Accommodations!!!
Barn on the Banks was clean and very inviting. It had everything we needed plus more. It was very comfortable and had spices for cooking that I didn’t even think about packing. My son and husband went fishing on the river below the barn and had fun. Beautiful views from every window. Ken and Linda were very sweet and responded to a text message quickly. When we return to Yellowstone we will see if the Barn on the Banks is available.
